Bronze loquat, Eriobotrya deflexa, is an attractive small tree with unusual foliage. The toothed leaves emerge a glossy brown-red-green, and mature to dark green. In summer it bears dark pink flowers, followed by fuzzy fruit. It’s extremely ornamental and is perfect for small gardens.
Grow Eriobotrya deflexa in moist but well-drained soil in full sun to partial shade. Don’t let it dry out and prune regularly to maintain its shape.
